I wasn't aware of that. These were small dog dental treats. My large dog still eats them but there is not enough mass to require serious chewing for the dental effect. I will be more careful in the future. On the other hand, since this is a prescription product, I would have thought that my previous purchases would have set up a red flag that I was ordering differently from before.

Lucy's teeth were getting a lot of tartar. We use Hill's Prescription Diet t/d Dental Care small bites as daily treats. She has made a remarkable transformation. So much so, our Vet didn't see a need for a dental cleaning. I highly recommend this product.

Had to submit a picture of the prescription, but Chewy made it quick and painless to submit, and within 40 hours they had verified the prescription and shipped the food! :) (By the way, this food REALLY WORKS for bad doggie breath - definitely ask your vet if they think it would make a difference!)

Both yorkies have cleaner teeth than my other yorkies ever had! My smaller yorkie takes a piece, both dogs jump on my bed and the smaller one bites it in half and shares with her much bigger brother.

The 30 lb bags were delivered right in front of our garage door, so we didn't have to load them into and out of the car from the store. We just pushed the boxes to the stairway, and slid them down to the basement. Hardly any effort at all. This is a major benefit for seniors.

My little 7lb Yorkie mix has the typical teeth of a small breed dog. This dental food was suggested by the vet to use in place of treats in the hopes that it would allow us to do less frequent dental cleanings. So far, so good. We have been able to extend the time between cleanings from every seven months to a year this time.

Makes for Great Treats

I don't use the dental chews for a regular meal. I use them as a treat in each of the three meals and our dog looks forward to having something special in his bowl
